If you’ve ever wanted to immerse yourself in the one-of-a-kind vibe of Miami Beach but never made the trip (or are eager to return), now is your chance. The CD/NLA Executive Retreat this June 2-5 is a perfect opportunity to get to know the world-famous Miami Beach area firsthand, but also get scores of professional insights that you can immediately apply to your business.
One of the key points that makes the CD/NLA Executive Retreat different from our annual shows is the limited size of the event, which makes it ideal for unparalleled networking. Because it is capped at just 200 operators, you’ll have more one-on-one time with your colleagues and form genuine relationships that often last far beyond the four days you’ll spend in Florida. We design events so that we move and break bread as a group, but also learn to rely on each other in our educational roundtable events. And because the retreat is open to operators of all sizes and years in business, the cross-section of shared knowledge is unmatched.
“We always have a good time at the retreats. They offer us the opportunity to spend quality time with our industry friends, fostering strong relationships and ensuring that we gain valuable insights and knowledge,” says Ariadna Noches of Mundi Limousines.
Our retreat is about as all-inclusive as it gets when it comes to meals and drinks. From our opening dinner & reception to our daily breakfasts and lunches to our private VIP cruise aboard the Biscayne Lady yacht, we’ve got you covered.
On Sunday evening, we transform the legendary Fontainebleau into an island paradise as we host our opening reception on the exquisite Ocean Lawn, just feet away from a magnificent waterfront view of the Atlantic. Sip on cocktails from our open bar and soak in the salty warm air under the dusky sky as you enjoy a Latin-themed dinner accompanied by a live band. And if after-dinner stogies in the night breeze are your thing, we’re thrilled to have our very own cigar rollers on site.
The following night we set sail on the crystal waters of Biscayne Bay during our private yacht dinner cruise. After a luscious dinner, linger on one of three decks for unforgettable views of the Miami skyline and opulent architecture while sipping on drinks (did we mention open bar?) under the sunset. On this exclusive three-hour cruise, we’ll have DJ’ed music, warm breezes, and, of course, the company of industry colleagues.
“The Executive Retreat is always a great opportunity to spend quality time with industry friends old and new. It's a more intimate experience with great parties and focused content for leadership issues,” says Colin Devine of FourthStreet.
If by Wednesday, you haven’t had your fill of fun in the sun, why not close things out with a bit of adventure? The CD/NLA Executive Retreat returns to the water for an incredible private airboat tour of the Everglades. On this excursion, you will enjoy a 60-minute airboat tour where you will be zipping along at speeds up to 60 miles per hour. Journey deep into the River of Grass on this guided tour for an opportunity to uncover some of the area’s best-kept secrets. Tours are led by an experienced guide who knows the best places to see gators, snakes and other wildlife that can only be found on this region. The tour will conclude with a 20-minute live gator presentation. Seating is strictly limited to 50 operators, so you’ll definitely want to register in advance.
